,… I would be interested in seeing on Pixie Faire is Welsh (from Wales) clothing designs. Since my maiden name is Welch, I have done a lot of research on this, but find very little regarding their clothing designs, early years or more recent. It’s almost as if the little country has been pushed aside and forgotten.

A favourite cultural tradition I take part in, when able, is to make traditional baking from Germany – my fave is coffee kuchen. It is a lot like cinnamon rolls, but done in sheets – dough spread over a cookie sheet, and covered with cinnamon, brown sugar, butter or margarine. When the dough rises, the sugar mixture settles in crevices and is often crunchy and gooey after baking – it is easier than cinnamon rolls, and can be cut in any size that works for the event. I tried to get as much of the crunchy pieces as I could! My Grandad made us homemade sausages. I love food traditions. My Gram sewed outfits for us at the holidays. Spending time with them at the holidays was special for me – add food, sewing, crafts, crocheting – wonderful memories that live on when I bake, crochet, or sew. I would like to see patterns from different countries at different times in history – that would be amazing!

However, I do have a Scottish heritage and have long been an avid spectator of Scottish Dancing and did participate in Scottish Country dancing for a lot of years, a long time ago. A pattern of interest would perhaps be in the area of the Scottish Country dancing. I can see those full dresses flying when dancing the traditional reels etc …. I love these designs by Genine and they are most definitely on my ‘want’ list already ….

One of my favorite Polish traditions at Christmas is the Christmas Eve dinner called Wigiela (vigil) which begins at First Star of the evening. It’s a special meal with traditional foods and the family breaks bread with each other giving each special wishes for the future.
The cultural costumes I like to see are Polish girl and boy. Think dirndl skirts, embroidery, ribbons and a wreath of flowers in the girls hair.

Not to be outdone, their older brother plays the bagpipes and marches in a Scottish band. They all have kilts and accessories like these patterns.

“A FAVORITE CULTURAL TRADITION I TAKE PART IN OR FIND INTERESTING IS the many food choices which revolve around our family gatherings together for dinners. We cook and eat Mexican, Finnish, Danish, Swedish, and food of the British Isles. However, the land of Scotland was the birth home of my great grandmother and sadly her father perished while working on building the famous railroad bridge at the Firth of Forth in the 1880’s. It was known as the blood red bridge due to over 100 men who lost their lives during construction. Shortly after her mother took her children and immigrated to the United States. Scotland calls to me and the bagpipes always bring me home to my great grandmother’s birthplace. I would love to win the Highland set of doll outfits. A CULTURAL PATTERN I WOULD LIKE TO SEE OFFERED AT PIXIE FAIRE WOULD BE African clothing in honor of my adopted granddaughter’s heritage.

A favorite cultural tradition I take part in and find very interesting is The Palio horse race that takes place in Sienna, Italy in the cockel shell shaped square. Sienna is divided into 17 areas or “contrade.” Each contrade has an ancient emblem and colors that are worn by the rider and are painted on the flags waved by the huge crowd of spectators. The motifs are the Eagle,Snail, Wave, Panther, Forest, Tortoise, Owl, Unicorn, Shell, Tower, Ram, Caterpillar, Dragon, Giraffe, Porcupine, She-Wolf, and the Goose.
After an official blessing, hundreds of local people parade around in historical costume. Then a fire cracker goes off and the bare back horse race begins.
The first horse to cross the finish line wins the Drappellone. A large painted canvas which is painted by a different artis every year. This is treasured and displayed proudly by the winning contrada.
I think the colorful silks and design motifs worn by each contrade would make wonderful outfits for 18" dolls.
After the race there is a mass and then each contrada, thankful for having been a part of this ancient tradition called “The Palio” celebrate with an Italian feast . I’m sure thae have lots to talk about after the days exciting race!

A favorite cultural tradition I take part in or did is the American tradition of opening presents left by Santa Claus Christmas morning, this tradition seems to be less tradition every year, people are telling their children there is no Santa Claus, and we are more about the “me” generation. A cultural pattern I would like to see offered at Pixie Faire would be the American Indians and their wardrobe. Though this would be something that would be hard to accomplish, someone who knows all about American Indians (or American Natives if you want to be politically correct). I think in America we need to appreciate the American Indians first and foremost as do our children.

I celebrate some of my father’s heritage by attending the large PNW Scottish Higjland Games. Absolutely love the pipe bands, competitions for dancers, pipers and drummers! Then there’s the food, arts, crafts and musicians. The Highland Games are a blast to watch!
